flow designer testing prevent cancel approval

[lcbell44]

When testing a flow, how do I prevent approvals from being canceled?

@lcbell44 

what's your actual testing scenario?

hi @lcbell44  ,

When you test a Flow from Flow Designer, the actions are actually executed on the instance, so approval records can be created during the test.For testing, I would use a non-production/PDI instance and a dedicated test record/user rather than trying to prevent the approval engine from behaving normally.

If this helps, please mark it as Helpful and accept the solution.

Hello @lcbell44 ,

share you flow screenshot or executions..

I was able to get around it by adding a debug flow variable and putting the elements I wanted to be tested in an if debug branch.
